Moroccan pouffes are a real must-have for those who want their interior design to give off a laidback, shabby chic feel. These small footstools come from the Middle East and North Africa, and India, where they have been around for centuries. In recent years, Moroccan pouffes have become increasingly popular because of their beautiful shapes and colors, making them suitable elements of any contemporary interior design. They can be used as seats or tables where you can put down your drink or cup of tea while watching TV or having a conversation with friends. You can also use Moroccan pouffes to decorate other rooms in your homes, such as your bedroom or even your bathroom, if you have enough space for them and want to give your interior design a bit of color.
Here we present you with six examples of how to use Contemporary Interior Design With a Moroccan Pouffe.
1. THE THEMED-LOUNGE
This first example of using a Moroccan pouffe as part of your home is the Moroccan themed-lounge. In here, several furniture items have been combined to form a lounge area where you can sit down and relax with friends after a long day at work or from doing some shopping during the weekend. The most interesting thing about this particular lounge is that it shows how versatile a Moroccan pouf can be – aside from being used as seating, it is also perfect for doubling up as a side table or coffee table.
2. THE MACRAMÉ-LOUNGE
Macramé is so hot right now, which is why it’s no surprise to see this Moroccan pouf being used as part of the interior design in this lounge. Not only does the macramé that covers it works well with the rest of the decor, but you can also use it to store your magazines and books rather than leaving them lying around on the floor. Just because you’re making use of space doesn’t mean that everything has to be hidden away, though – this would be too stark a contrast from the otherwise relaxed feel of this lounge area. Instead, place a few decorative items on top of your Moroccan pouffe, such as vases or candlesticks.
3. THE LIVING ROOM
Your Moroccan pouf doesn’t have to be used just like a seat or coffee table – why not decorate the rest of your room with it too? This particular Moroccan pouf is being used against one of the walls in this living room to add some extra color to the otherwise neutral colors on display here. Just because you use your pouf for decoration purposes, however, it doesn’t mean that you can’t also use it for its original purposes, such as putting down your drink while watching TV.
4. THE OFFICE DECOR
A Moroccan pouf makes an excellent footrest when placed at an office desk and paired with a comfortable swivel chair; it provides you with somewhere to rest your feet while also allowing your lower back to remain in a healthy position. You can also use it as a cushion for extra support when sitting on your office chair if the chair’s seat is too hard. Just make sure that you choose one that can be easily cleaned because spending eight hours or more each day using them will result in them becoming stained by sweat and other bodily fluids which your carpet or floor mat would otherwise absorb.
5. THE BATHROOM DECOR
Just like how Moroccan pouffes are being used against walls, they are also being used against bathtubs! Here, this particular Moroccan pouf has been placed beside the bathtub, which reflects its color beautifully. You can use it to store towels or other bath essentials such as shampoos and soaps. Just make sure that you choose something made from durable materials like leather which won’t be easily stained by water.
6. THE LANAI
Last but not least, your Moroccan pouf makes the perfect seat for when you want to spend time outside in your garden or on your porch. If you’re planning to go camping, it can also serve as a good mattress for sleeping on, especially if the ground is too hard and uncomfortable. The key to pulling off this look successfully is ensuring that your cushions are patterned; stripes work best here because they give off a seventies vibe while floral patterns work with traditional-style homes!
In addition to this, your Moroccan pouf can also be used as a regular seat or table in any room of your house with a relaxed style such as a living room or bedroom. Just make sure that you choose something sturdy and durable enough for regular use because the last thing you want is for it to break while you’re having guests over!
